Published: 2010/06/24   Author: yifan   Source: network

The core content of the May Fourth spirit is "patriotism, progress, democracy, and science".
We should strive forward, fight bravely, be proactive, and work diligently for the independence and liberation of the nation, and for the prosperity and strength of the country.
What is the May Fourth spirit? Some believe it is patriotism; some believe it is democracy and science; some believe it is the liberation of thought and innovation; some believe it is the spirit of rationality and personal liberation; some believe it is the courage to explore and pursue truth; some believe it is revolutionary change or reform that breaks with the old and establishes the new; some believe it is a thorough anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle. All these views are reasonable and are actually interconnected.
Patriotism is the source of the May Fourth spirit, democracy and science are the core of the May Fourth spirit. The ways to put forward and realize democracy and science are exploring courageously, being willing to innovate, liberating thought, and implementing reform. Rational spirit, personal liberation, and anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism are the contents of democracy and science. And all of these ultimately aim to revitalize the Chinese nation. Therefore, commemorating the May Fourth Movement and promoting the May Fourth spirit should combine all these aspects, and strive to revitalize the Chinese nation.
In short, the May Fourth spirit represents a unity of honesty, progress, positivity, freedom, equality, creation, beauty, goodness, peace, mutual love and assistance, labor and joy, and the happiness of the entire society.
Therefore, the May Fourth spirit is the elevated form of patriotic spirit.
